Nursing - Ten recession-proof degree subjects

The proportion of university students in work or full-time study six months
after graduating was just over 8 per cent in the two years before the start
of the recent recession. In the four years since, this figure has risen to
13 per cent, according to the Government's DLHE (Destination of Leavers from
Higher Education) survey.

However, some subjects defied this slump, and none more than Nursing.
Unemployment among nursing graduates has actually fallen from 2.7 per cent
to just 2.1 per cent.

Only subjects for which 500 or more gradutes responded to the survey are
included in this report.DLHE data provided courtesy of bestcourse4me.com
